Lucas Dakin scored a dramatic late goal on his debut to rescue an unlikely point for the Poachers.
He pounced in the 89th minute just a minute after Richard Ford had given them a sniff with his first goal of the season.
Dakin and fellow new signing Sisa Tuntulwana both came on in the second half as Boston reshuffled their pack after Fraser Bayliss was harshly sent off.
Last season’s top scorer saw red after 36 minutes after appearing to kick out at an opponent.
Newark went ahead on the hour out of the blue from a stunning strike by Ainsley Finney.
After 77 minutes an unfortunate own goal by Dan Worthington made it 2-0 and seemed to have sealed victory for the visitors.
But this Town side never know when they’re beaten and conjured those 2 late goals to end a sequence of 4 league defeats in a row.
Man of the match against Newark & Sherwood United was Luke Wilson. The game was sponsored by the Grassroots Plus football podcast.
